Uh, really, you know, five to 10 years ago was when we started to make this shift.

And so literally the nomenclature of, of how we were describing these very complex, difficult to manage, frustrating conditions, patients really literally were like, "I do not feel very functional." And, and there was really a big disconnect here.
