Email recovery

I have two hotmail emails, one for gaming and one set up for business, work, or other professional situations.  My work email somehow became corrupt and when i log in it says it looks like someone is using my account and they need to verify its me, but when i click to have a security code sent to my gaming email, it doesnt work no matter how many times i click the link.  So i tried filling out the questionairre and got two responses saying i need to fill out more info.  Any help? This email is important and contains important emails.  Thanks.
