Bilirubin: Bilirubin in the urine is not normal, but if all your liver function tests were normal and you've had susequent urinalyses showing no bilirubin, i'm inclined to believe that the original test was a lab error in interpreting the dipstick. It's possible you passed a silent gall stone back then however. An ultrasound of the liver and gall bladder could be done for the sake of completeness.

Bilirubin: If the test is now normal, probably nothing to worry about, especially if your blood work for liver function tests was normal. By the way, sarcoid can affect the liver. Any concerns, ask your doctor about them.
