Check your coolant level! The coolant has to be fairly full in order to heat the heater coil. If your coolant is at proper level and your mixture is good (around 50/50) your thermostat may be stuck open. This should have nothing to do with your latest oil change.

Testimonial: "Thank you so much I will check this as soon as I get home today. Thanks again."

2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette...Overheating, changed the thermostat, no signs of leaking, and the oil looks fine. At idle it takes 20 minutes to max the temperature gauge (red) and while driving it take

Usually the problem with no heat and overheating is low coolant, thermostat, or a faulty water pump impeller.
The radiator may not be full of liquid coolant, or the pump may not be moving the coolant thru the block.

The oil pressure on my 94 Trooper flucuates from around 10 at an idle up to 55-70 when I'm driving down the road. I changed the oil sending unit when I changed my oil thinking they both might help but I...

This seems pretty normal. So long as the pressure does not fall while driving, you're good.
When Idling there is very little stress on the engine, and it requires little oil pressure to maintain.
Additionally, the pressure is directly related to the rpm of the engine as the oil pump is driven by the engine. As the rpm increase, so does the pressure. The pressure should be stable at a given rpm.

The pressure on the high side is good. On the low side is adequate (idle). You did not say how many miles, but the only way to change this is to rebuild the engine with new bearings and seals. I don't think that's somthing you want to do. Sounds fine for now. Leave it alone.
Don't fall for a new oil pump. That is very rarely the issue.

After driving 15 to 20 miles oil pressure goes down when idling

This is normal,after your oil heats up it actuallt gets thinner,unless you are dropping below 10 lbs or dropping into the red on your gauge it is probably not a problem.Remember to change your oil on a regular basis to keep your oil from breaking down and causing engine failure.

Oil light on dashboard replaced oil but still on

Is it on when you are driving, or only at a stop when the car is idling? If it is more than at idle, I wouldn't drive it, as the engine may not be getting enough oil to lube it all and to help it stay cool. The oil pump needs to be changed in that case. It may be a bad oil pressure sending unit also.
