Burning Sensation While Drinking Or Having Food, Choking, Sore Glands In Neck. Taking Antibiotics For Tonsillitis. Opinion?

I have had a bad throat and the doctor said I had tonsillitus he put me on antibiotics. I have terrible burning when I eat /drink and still lots of pain when I swallow. I have been taking pain relief but not a great help. Last night I had a massive choking episode where I just could not get my breath it was really scary. My glands on my neck are sore as well but this tends to come and go.
