DH is now no longer in effect, correct?
#22 is now in the slot for the DH.
Later in game when #22 comes up to bat can the player who was the DH re-enter for him and bat?

Yes. When 22 ran for DH, that removed DH from the game (treat it like a substitution). DH has re-entry rights, so he can bat for 22. 22 now has re-entry rights and can run for DH and/or play defense. If that happens, DH will have been out of the game twice and has no more re-entry rights.
