From your list right now I would guess more nerve symptoms, unless something else comes up.
Thinking that too, but at this point I think peace of mind will help me. It's a little scary to see more than a few people on here with vascular TOS along with NTOS. I think my fear is having a vascular surgeon mistakingly mix up the presentation of my symptoms. I think I'd simply like to get a confirmation of "You're not in immediate danger, or any circulation issues are minor at most."

Do you have to put in specific constant hours of work or can you break your work day up and put in plenty time for rest & self care?
Good point, I can theoretically break up my day into a few chunks. I have been stretching and doing the work, and I know it's a slow process at best.

I know in just a few hrs when I was working I was at 0 quite soon.
I didn't have much job flexibility in a production assembly setting...
If you don't mind my asking, (assuming you're not able to work), do you rely on disability or? I guess it's unclear what becomes of those who are not able to continue working and how they fare.
