It is an early indicator of renal disease. In diabetes, the amount of albumin refers to the duration of disease and degree of glycemic control. It appears to be very good in your case.
Microalbumin is an early indicator for development of renal and cardiovascular damage. It can identify renal damage, at-least 5 years before other routine tests.
Annual screening is essential for you to check the damage that might be occurring.
Other tests are within normal limits.
Hope it helps.
Any further query, happy to help again.
