I found this information but I'd need to know if your test measured direct, indirect or total bilirubin. Also, this uses different measurements than your own. I put 7umol/L into a conversion chart and it equals .079185 mg/dL

Bilirubin levels in adults
Total bilirubin
0.3–1.0 mg/dL or 5.1–17.0 mmol/L

Direct bilirubin
0.1–0.3 mg/dL or 1.0–5.1 mmol/L

Indirect bilirubin (total bilirubin level minus direct bilirubin level)
0.2–0.7 mg/dL or 3.4–11.9 mmol/L

I found another measurement that said up to 3umol/L was normal but this was a urine test, not a blood test.

I think you need to call you doctor's office and see if the doctor or a nurse can explain the results to you.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
