BOTCHED Oil Change

Hi, so I changed my oil the other day, because my light came on an the motor made a strange sound. I Drained it, removed/replaced filter, Could not get to the screen to clean it because the screw was stripped. Filled it up about 2.75 qts, an let it run for 20 mins. I still had the light and the noise, so I put the extra oil in it to make it a full 3 qts, and drove to the gas station to fill up an give it a chance to cycle through the gears, hoping it would circulate the oil, but to no avail. 2 Days later, I still have the Oil light on and the funny sound and I´m afraid to ride my baby. cant get her into the shop until Saturday, they are booked till then. Any suggestions? Could the problem be the screen? Is there something I forgot? Nothing is leaking, Im lost, and im missing beautiful sunny riding days, PLEASE HELP
