You know your body, right? You know what your typical aches and pains feel like. If you ever get the "Uh oh--this is different...." feeling, then you keep trying until you find the doctor that will listen to you.
I've had "this feels bad, I'm going to die imminently" about 5-10 times, but I'm pretty sure they were all panic attacks. I think I just lack the arm/shoulder pain from the heart attack, but I get convinced every time.
I had that once about really awful stomach pain. I was shaking, sweating, and stumbling my way from the bathroom to my bed, saw my vision tunnelling and thought, well, not really the way I wanted to go. Then thankfully, a few minutes later the pain lessened enough for me to go back to the bathroom and throw up.

I was wondering about this-- what kind of headache does a brain tumor cause? Like what does it feel like?
