Stool studies next: Hi Jade. Sorry you are not feeling well. If you have fatty/oily substances in your stool, you need to get a stool examination to evaluate for the possibility of malabsorption. Stool should not be fatty/oily. Would also be important to know what you have been eating such as eating olestra or fake sugars? Also, any history of gastric bypass surgery? If the answer is no, stool studies to be done
