Well, if he has some Reaction/Initiative modifiers he may be prone to
some very instinctive reactions, like shooting someone who sneaks up
behind him and tapping on his shoulder. He may also appear to be cold
and distanced to the 'normal' people, because he sees the world in
another, more distanced way through his Cybereyes (if he has any).
Lastly the effects on the body are not that much, there are some good
Immuno-Supressors around by now, maybe he is a bit more prone to
diseases (by the Immuno-Supressors) or Cancer (I know it's from the
Cybertech for those Cybermancy Soldiers, but you can use it
nonetheless <EGMG>)
That's all I can think of at the moment...
