Default Track changes question

This might seem a petty problem for some of you out there and again, i am
aware that there might be no solution. Anyway, i will ask the question and
someone might reply.
I was proof reading a document and I made some 80 changes to a single word/I
suggested another synonym. However, now that I am almost finished I am not
convinced I made the right decision so I would like the original word back.
I know I could do it word by word (reject changes) but that would take me
ages. Is there any way of doing it all at once and for the document not to
look as if it was in a battlefield.

You can "reject all changes" but that will also reject any other changes
that you made.

Why don't you use "find and replace"?

I could use the find and replace option but then it will look bad in the
docum,ent. It will seem as if I were correcting my own work. Anyway, the doc
has crashed a few times due to the large number of changes already made!
