Brief Answer:
Insignifcant/ ?Gilbert Syndrome

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Your liver enzymes are normal.
Your hemoglobin is normal.

The total bilirubin is only slightly increased and is not significant. I would just ignore it.
The most likely cause is Gilbert syndrome which is a harmless condition which do not require any treatment. The bilirubin level may raise if you are dehydrated or if you fast.

I would say you can just ignore the report.
Regards,
Dr. R. K.
