This really freaked me out! I wasn't moving my fingers. They were moving by themselves. Mainly my left index finger...I was trying to keep it straight, and it kept curling inward like there was some other force making it happen. I do spend a lot of time on the computer keyboard. I am a writer, web designer, and student. I have been taking Celexa, Depakote ER, and Clonazepam for a very long time. I know one of these is known to cause Tardive Diskinesia, but I haven't had any problems before with it (or these meds). I have also been on Zantac for quite awhile (with no problems). I just started taking Singulair and using Flovent and Albuterol Inhalers about a month ago. The most recent changes in my medications is: I just started taking Clonadine about 3 days ago, and I abruptly stopped taking Risperdal yesterday. (with doctor's approval)

I agree with some of the other answers and also never ignore movements, twitches and different things your body does. Not to scare you, but you can get MS Or MD with a small similar symptom. Richard Pryer the old time comedian who is passed away now, had waken up one morning with his little finger twitching and curling, come to find out they ran test and it was the beginning of MS.. Please have this checked out, as well as your other body is having a reaction to a certain medication. Hope you feel better.. :)

You can develop strange responses to any medication, even if you have been on it for years and years. The one person you need to notify would be your doctor, but you can also call your pharmacist first and get an opinion as well. They are usually better trained on medications than the doctor themself. I'm sorry you have to be on so much stuff. Best wishes.

Sometimes you get a charliehorse for your palms.(I believe its referred to as cause finger) Like while you get one for your leg, you understand how it will get all stiff and also you believe like if you happen to transfer it, it's going to harm? Thats kinda the equal factor you're having. I get them always, however in my feet. It hurts and while you bend one all of them bend. Its the strangest factor. But ultimately it is going away. If its been a whilst for you and you're nonetheless having the challenge, then yeah, I might see a document. Just your common loved ones medical professional. They will factor you within the proper course if you happen to ought to see a professional.

I would recommend getting in touch with the dr to see what they think could be causing this.

Those are cramps-have our serum electrolytes checked. Those medications you are taking may have something to do with the cramps.
