It could be activating the Lyme. Many people with tick borne diseases, women especially, have bladder problems like interstitial cystitis. What specifically are your issues?

Flagyl can cause a really bad case of candida or other fungal infections that can settle in the bladder.

I had this. It went away with aggressive fungal treatment.

My vote goes to exacerbation where you already had a problem. In other words, it's probably due to inflammation caused by dead bacteria in your spine or in the nerves that control your bladder. The flagyl is doing it's job. Just like a remodel, things get worse before they get better.
