UTI: if it was only a simple UTI, should never have flank pain, if it was a kidney infection you may still be sore in your flank, if it is worse than when you started antibiotics be seen today, if stable or improved, probably ok to wait till doctor returns.

Little more time: Sounds like some improvement. Remember it takes up to 72 hours for the abtibiotic to really get going. So drink a lot of water and see how you feel tomorrow
