HGTV’s beloved designer Jasmine Roth, known for transforming chaotic homes on Help! I Wrecked My House, has endured one of the most grueling chapters of her life.

 

What began as a seemingly ordinary morning on Christmas Day 2022 turned into a nightmare. “I woke up and couldn’t move my neck at all,” Roth revealed in a raw confession that still haunts her fans.

A piercing pain shot between her shoulder blades, leaving the energetic builder immobilized and terrified. Medical tests confirmed the worst: a severe herniated disc at C5/C6.

 

The diagnosis shattered her world. The following months became an unrelenting ordeal of physical therapy, steroid injections, endless ice packs, and powerful pain medications just to sleep.

Roth described the period as “some of the hardest in my life.” Even simple joys—playing with her daughter or swinging a hammer on set—felt impossible. Desperate for relief, she underwent stem cell injections.

 

Two weeks later, she celebrated a half pain-free day, a fleeting victory amid the agony. Yet full recovery dragged on, with pain slowly fading over another six months.

 

Just as hope returned and things seemed to settle, 2025 brought fresh challenges. Roth battled ongoing health struggles, including toxicity, hormonal imbalances, and the lingering shadow of her neck injury.

 

She turned to functional medicine for answers. Then came the blood test results she had anxiously awaited. “I thought I was finally through the worst of it, and then the blood test results came back,” she shared.

 

The revelation hit hard, reigniting fears that her body was still fighting unseen battles. Roth’s journey has sparked heated debate among fans.

 

Some praise her resilience and openness about chronic pain. Others question if the relentless demands of HGTV filming and motherhood exacerbated her condition.

 

Critics argue she should have slowed down sooner. Yet Roth refuses to hide the truth. Her story exposes the brutal reality behind the polished TV persona.

 

As she heads into 2026, uncertainty looms. Network changes at HGTV raise questions about her show’s future. Personal recovery remains fragile.

 

Roth now focuses on intentional living—less phone time, clearer mind, and true relaxation. She promises to share her full health protocol with followers.

 

“I bounced back, but I relaxed—like legit relaxed,” she declared recently. Fans are divided: Is this the end of her darkest days, or another twist in a painful saga?

 

Roth’s courage inspires some while worrying others. One thing is clear—her fight is far from over.

The designer who fixes broken houses now rebuilds her own strength, one hard-won moment at a time.
