Low GFR

My daughter has a kidney panel done every two weeks along with her CBCs. This week came back with a 1.22 on Creatinine, which is higher but still within the normal range. The worrisome thing is a GFR of 55, which the lab report says indicates stage 3 kidney disease. Her hemotologist office has instructed her to drink more water (which I had already done) and will retest this along with cyclosporine trough this week. Does this indicate permanent damage or just something to monitor?
