The svn update command never discards or removes local changes made in your working copy. Maybe you ran the svn revert command instead? Or is there a conflict? What does svn status show?
Updating your working copy fetches the latest changes from your repository and does not remove your local modifications. If the incoming changes conflict with your local ones, there will be a conflict. SVN offers you to resolve this conflict interactively or manually.
