Well that was your likely sourse of the D.C. Off set, but I am surprised that the 8 volts you had before hand checked out so good!
Just in case note this about this regulator circuit , that being that the negative voltage tracks the positive.
This means that if the positive side of the regulator has a issue you will never get the proper negative voltage out of it!

Anyway, it's good to hear that you likely got 'er back up and running, enjoy!
