Sorry, but I don't understand exactly what you try to do. What do you mean with "reflection operation"?

Please described more detailed.

One idea is to make a virtual copy before you use the reflection. In this case you have "saved" the originally editings that you have made. Another alternative is to make a snapshot. In this case you can go back to this point on every time.

@AxelMatt reply is a great solution. to add to that there is a plug in called Any Filter plugin that will show you this info. Lightroom does not consider cropping or flipping and image a change to the image but only of its display.
