Socketing bug?

@Sparck,

I was looking for the appropriate place to ask this, but I had an interesting experience.

I started the day running all my wizards through the daily grind, and decided to advance my Balance, Jared WildSword (he was L135 at the time).

The first quest he did today was the Meowl Lion in Southwest Aero Plains. After the fight was over, I won a 124 Health tear jewel.

Problem here is that Jared started around 8,500+ health, and I shattered a +114 jewel and added the +124 jewel.

Question: How does my overall health go down to 7,936 from 8,537, by removing a +114 jewel and replacing it with a +124 jewel? Shouldn't his health go up 10 health instead of losing over 500 health?

Hard to imagine the same thought didn't occur to you, but are you absolutely sure you didn't switch some piece of gear or maybe an entire outfit in between the two health readings? I know when I finish a tough fight I almost automatically switch from my boss or custom deck to a different "street monster" deck in case I accidentally get pulled into a fight chasing wisps, on some characters this is a whole outfit change rather than just the deck.
