From memory it probably is radiation. I think Complete made things a little more sane (you don't die slowly from stepping ankle deep the the water anymore) but you can still get a dose.
At the start I think your geiger counter is rubbish or needs to be equipped or something. Maybe the dosimeter doesn't show up till then either, so you don't know you've got a dose at all.
I'd have to load it up again and check though.
Also, you haven't equipped a radioactive artifact have you? Again from memory, nearly all of them give you a dose, including ones safe in SoC. You can't wear them for any length of time until you find one of the radiation absorbing ones (and then you need to get a suit with more than one pocket).

I'm at the very beginning and haven't got any artifacts equipped. And so far I've been in only a handful of shootouts in the swamps. Weird... I remember something like this happened on my first playthrough some time ago (unsure if with complete mod or not) but neither a reason nor a solution, though there was one obviously.
Must check for that dosimeter thing, thanks.

Yeau. Just about to install Clear Sky, since I never played it properly.
Any suggestions for mods? I like graphical improvements or bug fixes, but no idea what CS needs as it stands today.
Any suggestions welcome, I'm just keen to get back into the zone.

Yeah, I haven't looked in ages.
I think Complete ought to do the trick really. From memory it tidied up a few things. You can't really fix what's wrong with CS with cosmetic and bug fixes though. The problems are deeper in the design.
But from memory it rebalanced a bit, gave the AI a tweak and made the faction wars system less buggy.
It's probably the way to go.

I went with Complete in the end.
Now I just need to get past the god damned military area in Cordon.
Fuuu-uck.

Yeah. Just don't be confused into thinking you're supposed to go under the log/tree. That'll just get you shot up.
