I know what you mean about the diet. I succeed in eating a lot of good things, but I fail miserably in that I eat a lot that I should not. Personally, I think the way to beat it is get the mercury out period. And do the best you can on diet, and try to balance out the digestive system with probiotics.
Coffee? No kidding. I loved coffee. I drank the stuff all day long with no problems for years. But hearing you and others say this is more proof of mercury toxicity, because one should be able to drink the stuff without going haywire. I would have a cup or even 1/2 a cup, and just feel wired like I was losing it before amalgam removal.
Yes, diet is hard for me too. Coffee was easy once I got past a few weeks without it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sweats.gif" alt="" />
