Due to the nature of history.back() it seems impossible.
The method history.back() simply simulates a click on the browser's back button, therefore the result should be exactly the same and the origin of the command unrecognizable. To me it also makes sense that when the user goes back he doesn't expect something new to happen, that didn't happen last time he visited that page.
However, to send the user back to the previous page I have successfully used something like this:
location.replace(document.referrer);
With this command you will be able to append a querystring that you can analyse on the previous page to get information about the call.

You can use the referer to check that he came from a page somewhere after in your flow of pages. Maybe that will fix your problem.
