In a patient with inflammatory orbital disease without a discrete mass to biopsy and recent bisphosphonate use, how much additional workup would you do if basic labs, urine studies, ANCA serologies, thyroid studies, chest imaging (to r/out sarcoid) are normal, before concluding that the process is likely secondary to bisphosphonate use?

Without a discrete mass to biopsy, is there any utility of any blind biopsies to rule out IgG4 related disease, infectious or neoplastic process?
