Okay, let's slow down on this. None of my toads have ever suffered a calcium deficiency, even though for the first year and a half of owning them I never dusted my crickets (out of sheer ignorance). I also don't think calcium deficiency has such a quick detrimental effect, but rather a drawn out decay.

So let's look at all the factors.

What are your temperatures?
What are the sizes of crickets and mealworms?
How often do you feed?
How often do you change the water/do you have a filter?
Do you dechlorinate your water?
How deep is the water?
Do you have any loose substrates (like moss or gravel they might be able to swallow)?
Are your toads skinny, or fat, or inbetween?
What sort of lighting do you have?
And finally, do you handle your toads?

I'll do my best to respond immediately.
