Untreated UTI for 11 days, what should I do?

What next step should I take? I am on day 11 of an untreated UTI. I tried the cranberry juice and otc medicine to start and it didn't work. Then I went to the doctors. They said that my urine test was high for WBC, but they didn't know what antibiotic to give me, so they sent it for Urine culture. I looked online at the results and it says that the urine was contaminated. And still don't have meds. Don't they typically give broad spectrum antibiotics, because this isn't going away on its own now. Thoughts on what I should do?

Urine culture results take 2-3 days. If you don't have them yet, call back asap and ask for antibiotics
