	Sounds like the axle is bent. Is there any play in the wheel when it's tight? Meaning put the bike upside down, and try to move the wheel side to side. If it doesn't move then you probably have a bent axle, but if it does move you may need to tighten the cones on the hub. Also if you take off the wheel try to spin the axle with your hands to see if it is bent. If u stop riding, u will die.

	^^^^ yup, sounds either like a bent/broken(probably not since sounds like u could still ride it) or if its the wheel itself that has the side to side play then it might just be adjusting the cones
