Is ulcerative colitis more likely, or something else? Other "symptoms" are abdominal pains, and pieces of undigested foods in stools.

I forgot to mention that I had IBD for many years and I was in the same situation. As a young man I was about 15 years old when I started having issues, but it took a full blown flare up before being diagnosed and that didn't happen until I was 37 years old. Over the years I had bad cramping pain and blood off and on in my stools. I had many colonoscopies done and the doctor kept saying that they found an area of irritation, but they never did a tissue biopsy. If they had I would have known that I had IBD many years earlier. It could be something else, like a bacterial infection, but it needs to be checked out soon as blood in the stools is never a normal thing. I doubt it would be cancer though.
