Restore it from a backup if you have one. Else... if you are lucky the
extents may not have been overwritten, so data can be recovered. Only
remains to find one who can do the work. I would start with opening a
case with Microsoft. So much is clear, this would be very expensive.

re: dropped tables


We Restored from the last backup 12 hours prior...
and was able to rebuild the missing Rows , based on log entries....was a lot
of parsing and re-construction, but managed to get almost all re-built...so
were ok

thanks for all the advice

Maybe time to consider to switch to full recovery?
