Okay, this is what I thought... I've already used "equilibrium" a few times and the whole text is about a balance of fluids in the body. So this fits... I was thinking along the lines of "water retention system" or some other bodily function related to keeping your fluids in check. But anywayz, this simplifies it. Thanks errybuddy!
