I just had the oil pan dropped and it was full of sludge, had that cleaned. I am also losing antifreeze fluid. Could that antifreeze be leaking and getting into the oil pan?

Yes it could be something else however. Have it pressure checked for a blown head gasket or like a cracked head, which I kind of doubt but it happens. It would have had to been overheated quite a bit to do that. You can probably rent a pressure checker at auto parts and fill system prior to checking.
