Arm stretching while sleeping

This has become one of my irritations. If I'm sleeping on my back eventually I can get my left arm to lay flat at my side, if I move the arm 8 inches away from my hip it takes about 20 minutes before it will lay flat. At 90 degrees to my body the arm will never lay flat, I can try to put pillows on it, they don't help at all. If I roll on my left side I can get the arm above my head but only if there is a headboard to grab onto. The hotels I've been at do not have headboards. If I roll onto my back from my side with the arm above my head the forearm will point straight up. This would be solveable if I had a partner that could sit or lay on the damned arm. I'm trying to see if PMS would actually help in my situation.

Once again spasticity defeats me.
