Wow!
IDK. Take the best care of it you can.
Is it not possibly viral?
I seriously doubt it's viral; I haven't seen it on YouTube :drool:
looks like bacterial spots to me. Here, I cut the parts and put cinnamom on the cuts. It works very well
I agree. When I see those kind of spots, I do ... nothing unless the patch is enlarging quickly and unless it has a wet look. I sometimes remove a very bad leaf.
This plant has similar symtoms as yours under some leaves... It was a few months ago and it is still growing and it will bloom again soon

I have had those "spots" also. It was done to leaving the plant out in the cold over night, wet. Mine was not bacterial but more along the lines of cells breaking down. I moved it inside and allowed the plants to dry out and the spots dried up. Bacterial rots will become mushy and brown in color 99% of the time.
I would watch it next time to see what happens.
They did have a bit of a wet look. Also, gorgeous plant. Seems to have taken my thread over, but that's not a bad thing. Not in the slightest.
I think he was talking about his plant. Threads are like land, they are not really owned by anyone.

These are not wet spots. And it was many months ago and the plant is still very strong. And sorry for taken you thread over. I will not do it again.

Back to the original question in the Original Post. (don't want to go down the side trails)
As others said, I wouldn't worry, too much. Your plant is big enough it should recover. However the way the leaves roll at the edges says to me the plant is stressed. Good news is you repotted.
Often bacterial infections hit old bug bites. So your BIG problem is MEALY BUGS. Kill those bastards off completely. Don't stop until you have sprayed every plant at least twice at the (manufacturer recommended) interval for the product you are spraying. Be sure to keep at it. If your bug spray says every 7 to 10 days, then you need to spray every thing every 7 to 10 days. Don't stop until you have sprayed everything at least once or twice after the last living mealy bug was spotted in your collection. If you don't kill them off completely then they will come back, and the ones that do will be resistant to your bug spray.
The spots are secondary, the bugs are the primary cause. I will see similar from spider mite damage, look at those too.
The rolled leaves makes me wonder about your humidity, or enough water, or high temperatures or something is stressing the plant. The leaves in a 'happy besseae' will be fairly flat with little rolling. You might just need more roots, can't tell over the internet.
I would just put the plant back in the spot it grows best in. It will recover better there. You are treating all the plants in the collection for mealies, often where we isolate plants the growing conditions are less than ideal and actually make problems worse.
Also look at air movement. Spider mites, bacterial and fungal infections, and other problems are easier to control with good air movement. Good air movement helps with getting better roots.
Hope this helps.
