I held off reimbursing myself for several years from my HSA, but finally did so for several prior years expenses in 2017. My 1099-SA shows the amount withdrawn, which I entered into TurboTax. Now, TT is subtracting this amount from my 2017 medical expenses, making me lose their deductibility. Why are prior year reimbursements being used to shrink my 2017 deductions, and how can I fix this problem, please?

Include the prior year medical expenses that have been paid with the HSA in your itemized medical list.
The program will automatically subtract the 1099-SA amount to make the total correct. It's confusing because you would not expect to list the prior year HSA medical expenses. The proper 2017 expenses only will then flow to the Schedule A line.
