 * Hello,
 * The problem is that the options table that can’t be found and it contains ALL
   the information about your site. The easiest way would be restoring a backup.
   If you do not have a backup check with your hosting company.

 * Oh no! That sucks. Do you have any idea how this could have happened and if there
   is any other way out? Unfortunately I have no backup and the hosting company 
   has not replied to any of my mails in weeks…

 * That is sad news.
 * I have no idea how the table got missed. do you see wp_options table when you
   go to phpmyadmin ?
 * There is no easy way around if you do not have a backup.
 * The problem is that the options table that can’t be found and it contains ALL
   the information about your site, except the posts that you’ve written.
 * The option you have left is to start over again.
 * If you want, you can export these tables, depending on what you want to keep:
   
   Comments: wp_commentmeta wp_comments
 * Posts:
    wp_postmeta wp_posts
 * Taxonomies (categories, tags etc)
    wp_terms wp_term_relationships wp_term_taxonomy
 * Users:
    wp_usermeta wp_users
 * Then you can delete everything from your database, visit your site’s URL and 
   you’ll be prompted to set up your site.
 * Once you do, you can try re-importing your tables back in your DB.
    But please
   keep in mind that these backups only contain the content of your site, not your
   theme, plugin settings etc.
 * !Proceed with precaution if you are not familiar with these things.
