I use Ctrl-O (letter o) for this. See
:help CTRL-O
You may have to type it a couple of times to get back to your
original file. Or you can execute
:jumps
to see a list of places you've been and if you recognize the file
name, jump to it directly. Or, you can execute
:buffers
to see a list of buffers you've had open during the current session
and again if you recognize the file name, open that buffer with
:b <buffer number>
or a number of other ways you can read about at
:help buffer
