Answers:

Your test result is good. Keep it up.
Normally, there is less than 43 milligrams per day of albumin in urine.(MedlinePlus)
Microalbuminuria is diagnosed:
* excretion of 30–300mg of albumin/24 h (A value of greater than 300mg is called "macroalbuminuria", or sometimes just albuminuria.)
* or 20–200 µg/min or 30–300 µg/mg of creatinine on two of three urine collections.(Wikipedia)
Microalbuminuria is albumin excretion persistently between 30 and 300 mg/day (20 to 200 μg/min). Normally, albumin excretion is < 20 mg/day (< 15 μg/min); > 300 mg/day (> 200 μg/min) is considered overt proteinuria.(Merck)
Please see the web pages for more details on Microalbuminuria.
