I really don't see any points from you, just antagonizing.

I can relate to your perspective and have no hard feelings. I also hope tallcall stays with it and comes back strong.
I just want to thank you for your opinions and ideas. I absolutely WILL come back stronger than before. I'm going to have my stride, etc looked at as soon as I can. Maybe they'll be able to make more specific recommendations. Right now I mostly drink lots of water, stretch religiously, am training myself to walk on the balls of my feet and my heels, and am starting to do some strength training for them. I think I'll begin rehabing them next week.
Also, some of the pain seems to have moved from the shins to just above the ankles, so maybe there is some redirected pain. My brother reminded me that it could be anything from an ankle problem, a problem involving the musculature of the foot, the Achilles tendon, the musculature of the lower leg and Tibia, or even micro fractures of the Tibia itself, and that it is not uncommon for it to be multiple problems. I still think most of the pain will have diminished in about a week, then I'll begin rehabing them with 50% workload for about 3 weeks, then working my way up to 100% and training them for strength just like anything else to try to prevent these from happening again (with an idea of proper form and perhaps better shoes).

Help to get through
I've found ice massage to be one of the most effective forms of treating shin splints. I have also found a shin splint compression wrap, made by a company called Pro-Tec Athletics. It's a neoprene wrap with two velcro straps and a compression pad. The compression pad is placed next to the area of pain and the wrap is wrapped towards the bone. It's a great way to get through rehabing shin splints.
