Missing Pages from Microsoft Word Document

I had recently written a 17 page document for a class and saved it to my documents which is automatically synced to OneDrive. All 17 pages were there when I saved, but when I uploaded the document, now only the first 6 pages are appearing. The file is nowhere in my unsaved documents and now when I open the file myself, only the first 6 pages will show up as well, both on OneDrive online and in my Word application. I have not been able to figure out how to recover my pages. Please help.

    Switch to Draft View and see if all of the text then appears.  If it does, copy everything EXCEPT for the final paragraph mark in the document and paste it into a new document.

    If that doesn't overcome the problem, if you send me a copy of the document, referencing this thread in the covering email message, I will investigate the issue.
