24 y/o.a recent pap came back as abnormal, possible precancerous cells. i made a follow up appt. could a recent bad uti falsley alter the test results?

No: That doesn't happen. Please comply with your instructions for following up the pap smear. Back in the bad old days, 30000 women died yearly in the usa from cancer of the cervix. Now it is a rare cause of death, thanks almost entirely to pap smears.
