You have already taken the pain medication your doctor prescribed and it is not helping.
While I realize this is a holiday weekend and your doctor does not have office hours until Tuesday you should call the answering service and have your doctor paged or the practices on call doctor paged. If you didn't have ovarian cysts my advice might be different, but you do and waiting until Tuesday to see a doctor could be dangerous.
You don't say how old you are so I am also going to suggest you tell mom or dad or both that you are in pain and the pain pills aren't helping. This is not something to hide from them or be embarrassed about.
After you speak with your doctor by phone the doctor can decide if a stronger medication is needed or if you need to go to a hospital emergency room where a doctor can examine you, possibly use a sonogram to examine your cysts and make a proper diagnoses as to what to do for you.
As someone who has to deal with chronic pain caused from an auto accident. I am always asked to rate my pain on a scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being the worst pain I have ever felt. Rate your pain in this manner for your doctor so the doctor can get a proper feeling for how bad the pain is for you.

I'll try. but like I was on the heating pad for a while. I'm a very active person, so I decided to go for a run it helped while I was running then when I was done it seemed like they got worse. Like is there anything to do for after?

Try a heating pad. And eat bananas in the morning the potassium should help the cramping a little more and only one or two bananas.
