    99% the bloody mucus is blood pressure related. Get it checked and get properly medicated for it - it will do damage long term. I know nothing about the "donate blood to get rid of rbc's" thing. Sounds like BS to me

    No, it is definitely not BS.

    Blood donation is a common and effective means of controlling hemoglobin and hematocrit. I have not had issues with RBC, but it makes sense that if you are giving up a tenth of your blood (I think we hold about 10 pints) that it would lower RBC. A simple google search confirms this.

    Plus there is a thing known as "double red" donation or similar, that extracts only red blood cells.

    Blood donation is a highly effective and safe method for controlling those numbers.

    OK I searched it up and you are correct. I see the hemoglobin numbers, for example, go back to normal after 6-12 weeks after donating so you would have to donate consistently.

    Actually consistent problems should be rare if your test dose if correct. Also in older men frequent blood donations lead to low iron - polycythemia.
