Antibiotics and thrush? Breastfeeding?

I've come down with tonsillitus, a viral throat infection, and an ear infection And safe to say I feel rough

Doctor has given me penicillin yesterday - however she said not to start it until Sunday and only then if I'm feeling worse as it will probably give me thrush. Instead she said to take paracetamol (which I'm allergic to) so I'm allowed 6 nurofen in 24 hours instead which is doing diddly squat.

What sort of thrush? I could put up with 'downstairs' thrush (sorry if tmi!) but I def don't want nipple thrush, I've struggled along with bf enough as it is.

No idea what to do as I feel so ill My head is spinning, I can't swallow, the dangly thing in my throat is huge and I feel like I'm choking.
