No not all who have hyperthyroidism have Graves’ disease . In Graves’ disease there are thyroid stimulation antibodies which stimulate thyroid gland to produce excess thyroid hormone .
Your cause of hyperthyroidism is toxic multi modular goitre. These two nodules are producing excess thyroid hormone .
