I was wondering if I should avoid Quorn? Or if anything else was connected with it

Is it all mushrooms? DH is highly allergic to shiitake mushrooms and no others. He can eat quorn, 'regular' mushrooms and yeast based stuff without a problem.

I've been wondering about soya (which I mainly consume as soy sauce)

& that means bread too

Quorn is a fungi derivative but not sure if you need to avoid it.

Soya is OK.
The sauce is fermented, so that's a no.
Soda Bread is fine.
Anything leaven with baking powder instead of yeast.

Soda bread is ok.
Sour dough is wild yeast, so maybe not.

There is something called the Candida diet, which is anti fungal. You could look it up.
It's very restrictive though.
