Can't cure absorbed rads
So I dont know when it started but I have been slowly losing more and more max health, the bar is partially red like I have rads yet when I use Radaway it takes off a little bit that I absorbed recently but a good fifth of my health bar is still red. I have no addictions according to the docs in the wastes and nothing effecting me as far as I can tell. Anyone have any ideas? And to clarify I'm not saying I'm constantly absorbing rads like other people have said when I tried googling this, I just cant get rid of the rads I have. And for the record I've played through FO4 a few dozen times and have never ever seen this happen.

Yeah I'm having the same problem. Right now it is just a tiny amount of incureable rad damage but I am worried it might increase.

RadAway should clean a lot, around 400? or something. And everything. Try a doctor in a city see how it goes. But it's not supposed to happen unless I don't know everything. And I don't...

Now I do know everything. At least a larger part of everything.
Good to know. I never cheat in Fallout 4, I just realized. What's wrong with me...
Thanks for the tip.

I had the same problem. Radiation didn't went away with Radaway. It worked after unlocking the "Medicine"-Perk (Intelligence Perk 2).
Otherwise you have to visit a doctor.

I haven't used that though, and I went to the Doc in diamond city and the rad cure option didn't work there.

Rad Away should be the only way to completely cure your radiation damage. Doctors leave 1% as to most other sources of radiation treatment.

It may be, that the max perk for Medicine is also affected by this, as anything that's supposed to "Fully" Cure your Radiation, seems to leave that lingering 1%, however, fractional cures like Mutant Hound Meat (Cooked) and Radaway with Medicine 0, 1, 2 or 3 should still remove all.

Nope, Normal difficulty. I have mods but I haven't changed or updated any of them.

Sometimes mod side effects can be sudden, even if it makes no sense. It's best to rule it out, disable your mods, go in game, and see if you can heal your rads. You can just enable them again afterwards since you aren't uninstalling them, so it can't hurt. It'll at least rule out your mods
