Untreated or unsuccessfully treated, Boren's can be fatal or debilitating. While some direct effects, such as migraines, can be managed with medication, the side effects of chemotherapy to drive tumors into remission can be extremely difficult to deal with.

It also shows great resistance to the [[Flood Super Cell]]. | Untreated or unsuccessfully treated, Boren's can be fatal or debilitating.

The condition has an unexpected, beneficial side effect, total immunity from [[Flood]] infection. [[Boren's Syndrome]] alters the neural synapses of its victims in a way that makes them too unstable for an [[Infection Form]] to manipulate or control. Also [[the Flood]] will not manipulate a person or persons with [[Boren's Syndrome]] because [[the Flood]] only infect healthy organisms, those that do not have damage to tissue, radioactivity and so on. | The condition has an unexpected, beneficial side effect, total immunity from [[Flood]] infection.
