Please share the file by attaching it here - or if you think it's confidential you can send it by PM

Hard to know what's going on - maybe it can be salvaged.

There's also an email address at the bottom of the help documentation if you are more comfortable with that

Make a copy of it and save it as an IDML document, then reopen it as an IDML document, that will clear out all the crud that builds up and that can cause document corruption. Let us know if that works or not.

OK, the next thing to try is the divide and rule method.

Divide the document in two, open each half in turn, if one half opens correctly and the other half doesn't, divide the "bad half" in half again and continue to repeat the procedure. Hopefully you'll isolate the issue that's causing the corruption.
