Hello,
* The clear yellow liquid is a sign of bowel cleansing already too a good extent as it has no fecal content.
However, you have to complete the packet of bowel cleanser for the hassle-free procedure tomorrow.
Wish you best of luck for the best results of the colonoscopy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
