Get Into A Facebook Account To Change It To Business Page Fb Forcing Name Change

I have a personal Facebook page in a business name. When I set it up, I didn't know about business pages. Facebook now says I need to change the name on the account to my name and have blocked access to the account until I do so. Online, I've found a way to change a personal page to a business page, but I need access to the account first. I can get access if I change the account name to my personal name, but then I lose my business identity, because when you change the page, the name changes as the name as it exists. I just need access long enough to transitition the page to a business page, but don't know how to do it.
