See your doctor: Blood in stools warrants further investigations to rule out serious causes. In your case we should be more vigilant given the background history of previous neoplasm.

See your doctor: These symptoms are concerning. It is not clear why you are having bloody bowel movements based on your history. You should inform your doctor about these symptoms and see what workup he recommends.
