Default Unhappy phal with various new growths

Having had issues in the past with my pot not drying out quickly enough, and my phal losing roots due to rot, I have become very careful about over-watering; about a month ago, some of the leaves looked dehydrated so I thought I better look at the roots in case they had gone rotten, as it seemed unlikely that I was under-watering. The roots were fine. I repotted as the pot had seen better days, although the pot was larger than I wanted. The plant continued to look slightly unhappy, and one leaf that had been damaged died off.
Underneath where the damaged leaf had been, there were lots of bumpy bits which I assumed would be roots, and sure enough, one of them has started growing.
The leaf opposite the damaged leaf quickly went yellow, and came off too. Now roughly in its place, there is a growth on the stem, and there is a pointy growth on the side.
Meanwhile, in the crown, there appears to be two new leaves growing (one is very small and new, yet there appears to be something inside which again, looks like a new leaf)
I also have something leaf-like growing beneath the lowest leaf.
In the meantime, the existing leaves do not look good. I have some old ones that have been on the slow road to aging and dropping (for a long time, it has had ten leaves - apart from the two already mentioned, it has only lost one leaf in about 2 1/2 years), and others look wrinkled and dehydrated. I am confused: is my phal happy or unhappy? And what are the growths that are not roots?
