Just had my upper GI test today...

I know my throat's supposed to hurt, but did any of you have kind of a crampy pain in their stomach also? I ate some deli turkey and it's been a little sore since then.

I'm pretty sure a polyp was taken out, if that makes any difference. Should I call my doctor or is it normal to have the pains like this on the first day?

It's probably normal. They pump you full of air to do the procedure and you may have just be feeling some normal after effects. They should have given you some post-EGD literature that explains possible side effects but you can always call the performing doctor's office and discuss your symptoms. In my experience they tend to be helpful.
