What happened to my draft Confluence page?

I worked on a requirements page in Confluence, and the page always said "Changes Saved".  Later I had to restart my computer and now I can't find the draft version that I put all that time into!  Can I get it back?  If not, why not?  I really trusted that all changes would be in fact saved.

Thanks. There was nothing there when I went back (it had never been saved), so I was panicking.  Then I read in another answer that one's drafts are available under the Profile link in the upper right corner, and I found it waiting there.  Whew.  I'm now less of a Confluence newbie smile

The changes are still there but not published. If you go to edit the page again, you should see the changes there.
