What Causes Lump In My Abdomen While On Gluten Free Diet?

Have been eating gluten free since Easter. This weekend I have eaten ham, which I usually avoid. Twice on Sunday as we were visiting, and this afternoon with cheese and vegetables in a gluten free sandwich. I expect this lump in my upper abdomen is indigestion. Would the ham be the cause? Thank you.
