Minoxidil saved my hair.
I had pre-existing bald temples, and my center patch started to thin which seemed to be directing me to a full-frontal baldness future.
minoxidil stopped the loss, thickened up the center-strip SIGNIFICANTLY and cosmetically improved the hair there so much that my frontal hair is actually STYLABLE, and not just wispy Phil Collins-like sh*t. It filled in the upper corners of my temples, the sh*t just plain rocks.

Yes, you should stick with it. Your signature line states that you started treatment in January 05, so you have only been on it for a couple months. As hair takes 3 months for enhanced growth to start appearing above skin level, and this is for hairs that were just beginning to reenter anagen phase, you have not given it enough time to make any judgements.
The rule of thumb is that you should start seeing SOME positive signs from months 3 through 6, and should wait until month 12 before making any sort of judgement about how well of a minoxidil responder you might be.
Most all of the veteran minoxidil users, as well as the product literature, all say that in months 1 to 2 sheds are very common and what you are going through is a normal and expected part of the minoxidil process.
