Hi lizardlady, sounds like you've been as polite, friendly diplomatic, reasonable as you can be enough times. But you just have "too good a friend there"!! 
So do you think maybe you could be real direct with telling her the way she is making you feel with her "over concern". Maybe leave out the "I'd like to scream at her to leave me alone" bit  but you could say something like it's "getting on top of you", "bringing you down".................
Or
Maybe "turn the tables" a bit on her. If she's had/having any difficulties throw lots of focus on them/her. Even if she comes into work looking a little tired one day? throw lots of concern/focus her way, notice it, comment, try to be "supportive". Throw the main attention away from yourself and right onto her. You never know she might lose some of the "obsession" about you and your health as well then.
Best wishes
Alison
