Since she's just been told that her cancer has returned, I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt and not try to read something into her words that she didn't mean.

I didn't watch the press conference, but after seeing your post, I read the AP article that quotes her saying "I don't look sickly, I don't feel sickly." That's the only context I have to go on.

I can think of a couple of things she might have meant by that, and none is that she is worried about her appearance. I'll write them out for you if you need me to.
