Had Tonsillitis, Taken Antibiotics. Still Trouble Swallowing. Doctor Says It Could Be Globus Histerics. What Is This?

I have recently had tonsillitis, taken antibiotics and although my throat is stil red and sore the infection sems to have cleared, however I am still having trouble swallowing and feel like I am choaking.
have seen a dr who said they think it could be something called globus histerics or something.
Is it possible to get this after tonsillitis or do u think its something else?
Thanks
