About indirect speech:

• The sentence that is given in direct speech must be changed into indirect speech.
• When a sentence is changed into indirect speech, the comma and quotation marks must be removed and 'that' should be added there.
• The person within the quotation marks must be changed in reported form accordingly. So 'I' becomes 'you'
• The entire sentence is converted into past tense. That is the verbs take the past tense form. Here it is in simple present 'am'. So it becomes 'were' -the 'be' form of verb.
• Therefore the answer is: You posted a message that you were down with flu.
