Anyone have uncontrolled finger movement?

Every once in a while my right index finger quickly moves vertically about two inches.  It's not often, but it is a weird thing and causes me some concern.  I'm wondering if this is just another of the long symptoms of anxiety.  Does anyone else ever have this symptom?

my right hand frequently goes numb, no pins and needles, just a complete loss of feeling and sensation but keeps working such as when I'm writing or peeling potatoes, I chalk it up to the whole anxiety thing, or maybe the thyroid thing, and don't worry...but it's weird and I sometimes think I have to be careful about it due to past experience.
When my thyroid was high I kept breaking 2 things, alarm clocks and glasses...I told the specialist, pcp, psychologist and no one thought it was of any importance, so I just ignored it too, until I realized I would hear the alarm, push the switch (way too hard) then reach for the glass of water (crack) to take thyroid med because I can't eat for an hour after taking it...now it makes a crazy sort of sense...sometimes reasons only come clear in hindsight

Hi, my index finger on my left hand moves side to side sometimes about 1/2 - 1 inch at times. My arm was broken last year and I have PTSD and anxiety disorder so I don't know what it is. I have had many other muscles twitches in the past as well. Don't know if it is anxiety or something neurological. I have made a doctor's appointment and I suggest you do the same.
