Can the pre-op endoscopy detect my bulemic history?

I am a recently recovered long-time bulemic. I am in therapy and determined to start a healthier life - the 1st step being wls. My surgeon requires a pre-op endoscopy to examine the esophagus and stomach. Can the doctor tell I've had past bulemia?? In all the time I was bulemic, I never threw up blood, had stomach pain, really no physical problems that I'm aware of. I know I should divulge my past, but am ashamed and afraid it might hurt my chances on getting the wls. Any info. would be appreciated.
