Hi Jen,
I'm going to answer your question in a few notes maybe over the next few
days...so your first problem with finding a term is not unusual - sometimes
small variations in a term can cause a lookup to fail. I usually try to
work with Cuis as a result. In your example for whatever reason the (t2d)
seems to be causing a problem - when I omit that things seem to work ok...
More soon!
Ted
