I was down walking on the treadmill when on my shin of my right leg I got this quick pain. I nearly fell off the treadmill the first time - I think it was more shock than anything but it hurt like h e double hockey sticks!
 It happened another 4 - 5 times in the 16 minutes I was there. It hasn't happened since though. I have had the needle pain around my entire body now for a while but this was the worse I have ever had!! It hurt and hurt bad! just venting.

You need to warm up and do some stretching before walking on the treadmill for any length of time. What can happen is the shin muscle is tight and pulls away from the shin bone.  To warm up, just walk for a minute or two, to get the blood flowing. Stop. Then do some light stretches. I can PM you specifics if you need them. Then back and do yoru walking. Start flat and gradually work up the incline. (over days, weeks) You need to give the shins a rest. Cold or cool packs if you notice any swelling. Otheriwse a nice warm bath with epson salt. Don't get back on the treadmill until all soreness is gone. Ok..Personal Trainer Monkey off her soapbox.

I do some warm ups before getting on - I have been walking on the treadmill for about 6 months now - it didn't seem like a shin splint to me, this was just in one spot and only lasted a second each time it did it. It felt like the "needle prickles" that I get but it was so much stronger! But, then again I am not expert on the issue. Thanks and I would enjoy seeing what you have for stretches - maybe I am not doing what I need??

I wasn't doing anything but sleeping, when I woke up with ice-pick jab, screaming pain in"good" arm elbow. Took some Tylenol, sat in chair and let arm to elbow hang down, back to sleep when pain subsided, happened twice agaib, now never again. Wow, it hurt me to tears.

Hey Yabbit!
Remember when I told you about the old "hatpin to the groin area" trick?? It sounds like that! I can't remember what the doc called it! I hate when that happens.
