Suffering From Diarrhea, Gurgles In Abdomen. Stool Test Shows Yeast Present. Anything Serious?

Hi. I had diarrhea for over 2 weeks, now slightly improving, along with gurgles in my lower abdomen. I had stool tests done as follows:
--culture: salmonella & shigella...none found
--clostridum difficile toxin A & B, EIA...not detected
--ova and parasitese, stool conc and perm smear...no ova or parasites; many yeast present

I feel fine and my diarrhea is improved. The "many yeast" scares me. Does it necessarily mean I've a serious problem?

Thank you.
