Perhaps migraine: Most likely, you are suffering from a migraine variant, but other causes could include TMJ, dentition, sinuses, local inflammation and/ or neuralgias. Brain tumor would be a very unlikely reason. Appropriate therapy would allow cessation of problems, and an experienced neurologist could be very helpful
