Keep checking the oil for coolant contamination. Coolant is either leaking out or going out exhaust via head gasket.
I did the test kit but I don't think the coolant was circulating so it was negative
If car overheats while driving you can lose coolant without seeing any obvious leaks - it can go out overflow tube from coolant reserve/degas bottle. Can also happen if cooling system is over-pressurized, something that can happen with a bad head gasket. Could also have a leaking heater core and coolant is draining to ground while driving via heater box drain. If coolant is not circulating then look into a bad thermostat or water pump.
