moshu,
Thanks! Those links you provided really helped. I was able to get all of my content back (up until the last backup at least) and most of the formating. Something strange is going on with my sidebar, but I’ll fix that another day. I am just glad to have saved the post and comments.
omgitztrey,
The previous host couldn’t tell me anything. Repair, a backup restore and even rolling back the entire site to a point when it was working didn’t help. They were pretty rude about the whole thing and made it clear that they weren’t going to help with a MySQL issue. I’ve since changed host.
Thanks for taking the time out to help me guys.
