Retirement tax questions

Line 12e shows $17,750. I am over 65 filing single, not blind and no disaster losses. Schedule A shows these deductions: $10,669 medical, $5705 taxes paid, $2000 gifts to charity, totaIing $18,374. Why doesn't that transfer to Line 12e on the 1040? I compared filing standard vs. itemized and the refund is exactly the same. Why?
