Occasional blood after diarrhoea but have suffered with diarrhoea for 3 years with excruciating abdominal pain is there a chance of bowel cancer?

Colitis: You appear to have an inflammatory condition affecting your colon, and yes cancer is possible but there are many other more probable scenarios. You need to see a gastroenterologist ASAP and be thoroughly evaluated. Go now and feel better soon. Best wishes.
