Possible allergy to soy?

Hello Everyone,

I am new to the message boards so if I don't do this correctly bare with me please or clue me in. I have all of Heather's books and have been trying to follow the IBS recommendations. In the last year I'm convinced I have IBS but predominantly with constipation episodes (small hard stools), right lower abdominal pain, sporatic flatulence and trapped feelings of air/gas, (lovely) back pain when all my Sx. are present. Anyway, I am wondering if I may also have an allergy to soy. My symptoms recently improved with a strong focus on eating the IBS recommendations but I bought this soy butter from Whole Foods and my symptoms returned. I'm just questioning if my symptoms worsened because of this. I also get a small kinda itchy rash on my lower right abdomin this happened once before when my symptoms were aggravating. I've been to a few regular family doctors but they didn't want to do tests since my symptoms do improve when I change my eating habits. I'm actually a pretty healthy eater in general I just think that when I change my eating habits to too many whole grains, veg's, don't eat regularly, eat too much at one sitting, or maybe to much of one thing and not enough variable foods my symptoms appear and it takes a long time to improve once they are here. My basic question is does anyone know anything about soy?
