What Causes Diarrhea Along With Abdominal Cramps And Bloating?

I have had off and on diarhea, cramping and gas for over 3 months. I have had a couple of instances of small amounts of blood. I gave a lot of gas. My bowel movements are soft and incomplete. The rest of the day I have small amounts of soft stool. It is hard to go anywhere. Before I got this I have had intermittent problems but then I had two courses of antibiotics for reoccurring bladder infections. They are gone but the digestive issues are very bad now.
