It's stuck and I've tried everything and I'm crying and scared

This is my third month trying the Lunette, and it's been very uncomfortable. So I stupidly turned it inside out, and now I can't get it out. I have a leg injury that keeps me from squatting longer than a minute or two before the pain is too much. Is there another position besides squatting that I can use? 

I'll wait till I've stopped crying before I try again, but I just feel so helpless and pathetic and mad at myself and mad at my uterus and mad at the makers of these stupid things.

I'm 42, just beginning menopause, never had children. Don't know if any of those things are relevant. 

Please help. I can't stop crying. I just want this thing out of me.
