Hi there, to be sure I understand, you mean you wish to change the email address you have entered here? https://wordpress.com/me/account/
Have you tried the steps here to update that? https://wordpress.com/support/email-address/
When you try, do you get an error message or some other odd behavior? Thanks for the additional info!
-
Yes, that is correct – I get error msg that the email I want to change back to says it is already being used……

When you get that error message it usually means that you already have another account with us that is using that email address.
If you want to “free up” the email address you must log into the other account (the one that is using it now) and change that account to something else. Once you do that you can use the address on this account without issue.
If you do not recall how to access your other account, you can email yourself a login link, since you have access to the email: https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
Hope this helps!
