Hmm, this does not sounds good, if the oil light came on while driving the engine could have suffered internal engine damage which is common when the engine runs out of oil, please upload a short video in your response of the problem, so I can see what's going on for sure. Can I ask if the engine makes a louder noise when first started? If so this is a sign a crankshaft bearing has spun. When it was in the shop the damage could have not been as bad but as you drove it home it got worse.
