Hi, I am trying to create an autocomplete for common symptoms. I have run into an issue where my completion suggester does not appear to be honoring all of a document's inputs. As shown in the gist linked above, I am indexing multiple documents with 'fever' in the input, but only one shows when I search for 'fever'.

Does anyone know why this might be happening? I am using 2.4.2. Any help is appreciated. I know there were major changes to suggesters in the update to 5 which may solve my problem, but unfortunately I don't have the resources to upgrade at this time.

Thank you in advance!
