Worried about urine test result and scared !

38 year old male recovering from prostatitis. Yesterday I had my 30 day follow-up and I am healing from the prostatitis fairly well. Per standard procedure a urine test was done and everything was good except I had small trace of bilirubin in my urine. My urologist did not seem concerned and so I didn't think anything of it in fact she did not even schedule a follow up as I am recovering nicely from the prostate issue. I get home and look it up and now I am freaked out I have liver disease! I am not jaundice and no other liver disease signs. I did drink quite a bit the night before and a few other nights last week as well. Not sure if that can skew that number at all? When should I be concerned about the trace of bilirubin in the urine? Really scared right now
