Rectal pain and gluten free diet

I started eating gluten free bread 2 months ago and have developed rectal pain. No blood or hemroids present. Does this sound like a normal side effect?

Going gluten free (no wheat, barley or rye) should not cause rectal pain.  Do you have celiac disease. Celiacs can develop other concurrent illnesses.  You should consider seeing a doctor.

Ditto. Get this checked out by medical professionals as soon as you can. If by some chance the pain is being caused by colorectal cancer you want to get it addressed pronto. It would be a good idea for you to get a GUAIAC done. There may not be enough blood for you to see but a small amount could be present.

Hemorrhoids can be higher up, more internal and out of sight.

There is also something called proctalgia fugax which you should research. I have suffered from it in the past.

So have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or are you just doing testing the waters by going gluten free?

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
