To say, "I am good" is sometimes intended to mean, "Don't worry about me."
(I'm okay, but I could be feeling better.)

Overall, Alex is ok, but whether he's feeling quite fine at the moment is not expressed. He may have had a headache yesterday, this morning, or right now, but he doesn't think the listener needs to know.
