You have problem of abdominal cramps and blood in stool that may be because of gastroenteritis.

Intestinal infection like ulcerative colitis may cause abdominal cramps and blood in stool.
Infection of parasites or bacterial or viral cause this problem.
Giardiasis may ruled out.

Stool examination test is helpful for diagnose.

Consent a gastroenterologist for diagnosis.
Proper history and investigation helpful for further diagnosis.
