Summary
A person with ME/CFS reported arm pain that came on mostly during longer drives, unless they were having a really bad time. When resting face-down they sometimes had to contort into odd front-lying positions to shift the pain to somewhere that hurt least. Fitting a steering-wheel knob was life-changing for manoeuvring, especially when the arms started to ache.
