Contact your doc: One of the least suggestive symptoms for brain tumor are headaches arising in different parts of the head.Such a pattern is usually something else. Any progress in finding out the origin will require a review of history and a physical exam. Rather than suffer from the fear, go in and have your doc help sort it out.
