I've been hospitalized with pericarditis this weekend. i have a strong (nerve)pain in my right shoulder even with ascal. is this normal/associated?

Maybe.: If you have the pain now and it was not present when you were in the hospital, call your doc or get seen today. If it was there before, it certainly could be related. If the pain was controlled before but now isn't, that is also worrying and warrants another call to the doc or a re-check quickly.
