My boyfriend got drunk and choked me, then the next day sincerely apologized what do i do?

My boyfriend and I went to a camp fire in which everyone there was already drunk, he took it as he needed to catch up and started chugging a bottle of Jose, by the end of the night he was belligerent and bragging about having a conversation with another girl at work about how she enjoys the "Shocker". I am a jealous person and so i got upset and after so much of it decided it was time to go home. Once at home i kept my distance from him because i knew he was drunk and didnt want to fight with him while he was intoxicated, he became very sick and started throwing up. i was still upset so i didnt go into the bathroom and comfort him like he does to me when i get sick, this of course set him off and he yelled at me saying i didnt care about him. he went to bed and a little bit later he rushed back to the bathroom continuing the throwing up, this time i felt bad and decided to go sit with him, while he heaved i tickled his back and while i tickled his back in between dry heaving he would call me harsh names and say that he hated drinking around me and that i didnt care for him ect, finally i got fed up with it and slapped him in the back and said F you im not staying in here for this, before i got the full sentence out he turned around from the toilet and choked me up against the wall.. when we awoke he remembered choking me but nothing else, as i explained the yelling and how he pushed me and wouldnt let go of my arms when i tried to get away. the color from his face drained and he sincerely apologized, he said he had never gotten physical with a woman before in his life (he had never been physical with me prior to this either) he told me he would support whatever decision i made whether it was to stay with him and accept his apology or if i felt unsafe, to leave him. for the next few hours he kept his distance from me, he couldnt even look at me. it has been a few days and i said i accepted his apology but i honestly dont know if that was what i should of have done,
