Default Can it present on both sides? And do my symptoms sound like TOS?

Trying to figure out whats wrong with me, I've gotten a Dr appt scheduled, but still trying to do my own research in the meantime.

It started a few months ago. But within a day I started experiencing symptoms in both hands. When I wake up either my ring and pinky finger, or thumb and index finger are numb. Seems that it's usually my pinky side if i sleep on my back or thumb side if I sleep on my side. And like I said it happens in both hands.

Other then the morning symptoms in both hands, I recently started to have semi numb pinky fingers while awake as well. And it gets worse when I'm gripping something tightly or making a tight fist.

Also I've got persistent sore spots in my palm below thumb, doesn't hurt normally, but they are sore when I press on the area, or do something that presses hard against my palm. I sometime get similar pain in other places along my arm or between fingers, but the palm below thumb is the only persistent one.

Best way I can describe it is a sore muscle like pain, like when you just started working out after being out of shape.

TOS is the only logical conclusion I came up with, but just wanting to get an opinion to see if it indeed sounds like it, or could be something else.
