Is It Neurological To Wake Up With My Arm Or Arms In Air?

Why do I wake up with my arm or arms in the air? sometimes they fall and I hit my husband who gets mad. Is this a neurological issue as I've had 7 operations on my neck and back? Is it due to med I take for pain or depression? Stress induced? Any ideas to stop this behavior? Thank you so very much for any input you may have.
