I went to the dr. today because I have been experiencing some sinus pressure and doc put me on abx. Is it possible to be experiencing a lyme-flareup because of the abx?

Yes. Lyme can flare up when you take abx.

Definitely. The first couple of weeks I was on the abx, I was exhausted and my symptoms worsened. Very common.

It's known as a herx... an increase of old symptoms or presence of new lyme symptoms.

Herx's are your friend. Welcome them in.
