Pull an oil sample and have it lab tested. Synthetic oil doesn't sludge under normal circumstances. The most likely culprit is anti-freeze in the oil. Second most is acute fuel dilution.
Sure, you are likely going to have to flush it, but better to know if you have a major problem before doing anything else.
