Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic,I am Dr Muhammad XXXXXXX I have read your question closely and will help you in your Health care problem.

Off and on GIT problems can be there with celiac.. Oily stools with mucous is quite common in celiac disease I would suggest you to keep using the medication suggested by your gastroentrologist and also do following things.

1) Drink much fluids.
2) Avoid gluten strictly.
3) Use fibrous food.
4) Use fibre supplements.
5) Eat simple food easily digestible.

If things keep getting worse do get a gastroentrologist checkup.ASAP.

For the time being you dont have to panic much, it is an every day matter being a celiac patient you just have to take care about food and.meds.

Regards.

Dr.Muhammad XXXXXXX
