Whenever anyone uses the treadmill upstairs, it sounds like it is coming right through the ceiling....yikes!!! Did we make a mistake putting it up there in the den, is it structurally dangerous to keep using it up there?

Should be okay if your house is built to specifications and approved by the appropriate departments.
Second floor has to be very strong structurally anyway. It has to hold furniture, people and everything else.
