Are Anti Fungal Medicines Sufficient To Cure Geographic Tongue After Having Gallbladder Removed?

Hi, I have been suffering with geographic tongue since having an operation to remove my gallbladder in September 30th 2013. I have been on anti fungal medicines and have been taking iron, it goes away with medicine and then reappears about 2-3 days after ive stopped taking the medicine, at the moment my sores have gone (taking medicine) but the edges of my tongue are now scalloped and my throat feels like its closing, it almost feels like im being strangled, my head feels like its not getting enough oxygen and feel quite light headed with it
