Disjoin from Domain

I made the terrible mistake of disjoining the domain and
now I've lost the original domain user's profile. If I
rejoin the domain and logon with that user name, it would
have created a new profile. How do I recover to where I
was before disjoining from the domain? Thanks.

This is off-the-top-of-my-head....
How about:

Re-join the domain;
Log on as the same domain username;
Let it create the new profile ( if that is in fact what it does, I've not
tried! );
Log off;
Log on as local Administrator;
( So that the old and new domain user profiles are not in use );
Go to user profiles;
Copy the old domain user profile over the new one.
 
Thanks. I'll try that.
