Maybe: Do your eyes protrude? Is your thyroid quite large? Do you have bumps of flesh on the front of your lower legs? Do you have the antibody in your blood? Rare graves' patients may not (yet) be hyperthyroid -- this is well-known. The eye disease needs to be managed and the patient watched closely. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/pmc2594903/.

Graves behavior: The eye disease of Graves and the thyroid part run their own course. Your thyroid can be treated, and the eye disease can pop up years later. Sometimes Graves and Hashimoto's coexist, and your blood thyroid level is normal even though there's a storm of inflammation going on in your thyroid. Talk to your endocrinologist.
