Time to change routine? Opinions?

Hi everyone - I posted this on the other board, but thought I would put it here too in case some of you only post on this site. I was wondering if you ladies can help me. Is it time to change my routine? I started taking BO (Vitamin Power brand) on April 30, so today is officially one month. During that time I had my period and had to stop for BO for 4 days because I got really ill and couldn't eat anything. Other than that, I have taken it faithfully - 1800mg per day. In the beginning I broke it up into two doses, but now I take it in three. I get two doses on an empty stomach and one with food. Here's what I'm doing:
AM - take 600mg BO, 1 kelp, 1 L'tyrosine, 1 pituitary (take the pituitary now only M,W,F)
eat breakfast 1 hour later -- have had protein shake with breakfast until I ran out a week ago.
Afternoon - take 600mg BO with lunch
PM - take the same that I have in the AM, but add Argenine. Try to take 2 hours after eating.
I have no tingles, zero growth, nothing. Is it time to increase the BO? I do have a low body temp, but so far nothing has touched it. The kelp and Tyrosine do nothing and the red pepper capsule only burnt my insides (It is three days now and I still can't drink hot tea!). I'm a cold blooded gal, but I'm sure I have no thyroid problems. I'm thin and have zero symptoms of such.
What's a girl to do? I don't want to waste my money and time. I have heard that you have to stick with it to see results, but I've also heard that if it is going to work you'll see or at least feel something in the first month.
Any thoughts are well appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I had to use 2200 mgs for growth.
Also - it's MUCH better to split your doses up over 3-4 times per day, rather than 2, and to take it with meals.
I don't know about using cayenne! Trying taking up to 1500 mgs of l'tyrosine, 1000mg in the morning on an empty stomach and 500 in the early afternoon.

I'd suggest the same as the other ladies did and up the dose.

Ladies, thanks SO much for your responses!!! I'm going to up it tomorrow.
I am taking my pills 3 times a day, so I'll keep up with that, but I do have a question - why with food? I have been so confused with all of the debate over food vs no food that I gave up and split the difference. I take it am on an empty stomach, with lunch, and pm on a mostly empty stomach.
Also, shall I shoot straight up to 2200 mg or go to 1800 first for a month?
Onwards and upwards!!!

Oops, forget the inept math. Increasing 1 pill 3x a day really does put me at the 2200 mark. I'll do that.
Thoughts on taking it with food vs no food? I know that the directions on the VPower pills say to take with food and that BBreast tells you to take it on an empty stomach. But why?

BB pills have a what they call a 'homeopathic potenization' on them and taking any foods or drinks other than water with them according to bb, will interfere with the potency. Also, I've read myself where homeopathic meds do better on an empty stomach.

Yes - but she's using Vitamin Power - not "BB" brand.

I know she's taking VP brand.......I was just explaining why bb says to take without food since she was wondering why that's totally different from the directions for VP. I don't know why the VP brand is better taken with food...but, maybe you can answer that part for her??

If you are to take the L-T and Kelp on an empty stomach in the morning, and BB also tells you to take one pill in the morning on an empty stomach, one has to be taken before the other...but which one? And do you have to raise your temperature before taking the BB pills? As in for that particular day, does your temperature have to be high before you take your pill? Help!!!! :-)
