Get evaluated: No one can tell you without an exam and appropriate lab work. See your mother's rheumatologist.

See doctor: Although males are less likely to have autoimmune disease, joint pains are not usually associated with migraines. You are still at higher risk of getting an autoimmune disease with the positive family history and need to consult your doctor to make sure that there is nothing more serious.
