Did you check iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, if there are any backups listed taken at the time you restored your phone?

If yes, use this backup to restore the phone again.

If there are no backups listed and you are not using iCloud to back up either, your data is gone, sorry.

Also check this article about it:

Thanks for your reply Ingo, there are no back ups listed 😟 I don't really know what to do now. I had booked for a tech support to call me on Monday. Hoping they could help me.
