Eyes crossed or unfocused

It's put me off artificial sweeteners forever!
I've been sick for almost a year and a half...
That whole Splenda experience was very unfortunate...
I started having trouble focusing my eyes...

I recently started a diet program at Metabolic Research Center. During the "nutrition" part of the program which consist of 2 hours of product sales pitch, I specifically told the instructor that I cannot have anything with artificial sweetners. She directed me to their concentrates, claiming that they only had fructose sweetner in them.
After one week of drinking these products 3 times a day, (two less than they recommend), I started having problems. Along with daily headaches, in one week I have had several bouts with diarrhea, and the thing that has concerned me the most is my vision has been so blurry that I thought I may be going blind. I decided to recheck the ingredients in the drinks. Sure enough sucrose was in the ingredients. Needless to say, I have stopped the program, and I am so thankful for the information I found here to help back up my claims of the reaction that I have to Sucralose.
