My ipad deleted what I edited on a photo with markup

So I took a picture and edited (on my iPad Air 4th generation, latest software 16.3.1 ) with markup, doing some important notes on them. A few days later, today, I wanted to take a look at them and I could not believe my eyes. The markups have disappeared, leaving me with the original photos with no notes on them. I can't imagine how something like this happened... Any way I can get my markups back? I took some important notes and I need them.

iPad Air, iPadOS 16

Be very cautious when using this default editing app as it is unreliable. I was literally editing an image with this 'Markup' tool; which took me about 30 mins to edit. And when I pressed done, it said: Error to save... and it gave me the picture as it was before the edits. If you use it, make sure to save regularly or take screenshots of the edits.
