You can't reuse an email address that was previously been associated with an Apple ID in any way until an uncertain period has passed--sometimes reputed to be 30 day and sometimes 1 year. Also I have seen that never can use such an email address again. You could make a basic Apple ID change or create a new Apple ID to use at least use temporarily. Before doing so, you can contact Apple support on to check out the wait period. You can get Apple telephone support for help using this link https://getsupport.apple.com/?caller=kbase&PGF=PGF63005&category_id=SC0245&symptom_id=23362 Be patient sometimes Apple support is closed to immediate phone support.
