Notes not syncing on iPhone/mac

So yesterday, the 'Notes' on my iphone were not updating.

I tried to fix the issue by:

1. Going to settings > Apple id > icloud >then toogled the green button off for notes

• • I Was prompted with a warning message, "Are you sure you want to turn off notes? If you turn off notes, these changes will be lost."
    • I clicked 'Delete from iPhone'

• Since then, ALL notes are gone from my iPhone and I cannot seem to get them back.
• However, I was able to still access notes on my mac and iPad AND when signing in on the web.
  • I tried playing around with some settings on the mac, now I can't get any of my Notes my Mac!
  • HOWEVER I can still get the full catalog of notes on my iPad AND on my iCloud web account.

WTF happened and how I can fix this?

Thanks.
