Hyperventilation: syndrome. Absolute can be related to stress/anxiety. Additionally, you should have a medical exam and thyroid function studies.

Nerve issue: It could be a nerve issue causing a parasthesia in your arm/hand, and your anxiety is probably making it worse. See the Dr. for an evaluation and possible testing such as an EMG which would be diagnostic for any nerve issues. best wishes.
