Medical Expenses not transferring to Arizona return

It seems like my medical expenses from Federal are not transferring to the Arizona state return. 

I'm using TT Online.

I entered them into Federal even though I'm claiming the standard deduction, like I do every year.

I've read every post here in the community about medical expenses and Arizona. I am a full time Arizona resident. I have selected to itemize Arizona deductions to pull the information through, although I choose standard deduction (just like years before). 

As far as I can tell, nothing has changed regarding how AZ treats medical expenses. A number of sites say it's a credit instead of a deduction. 

Under the Taxes and Credits section, it lists 

Taxes - Income tax - $xxxx

Credits - NONE

.

Should not the medical expenses be in that place?

I've deleted my state return and started again, I've checked and re-checked my federal deductions. And still my AZ state refund is thousands of dollars less than normal (the last ten years). 

I can't seem to view the actual tax forms before filing so I can't check there either.

Help?
