Can a throat infection cause your heart to race really fast because of intense pain?

The pain in my throat was so bad, it felt like there were knives in my throat and it was burning to the point where I was literally grabbing on to my throat and crying till I was put on a drip because my heart rate was 140bpm.I found I was really trying not to swallow because the pain was so bad. I was told when I went to the walk in clinic that sore throats are always painful but this did not feel like a normal sore throat at all!
