Yes I have them on most of my fingers, bigger on some than on others. I guess I first noticed one about 10 years ago and I've slowly collected more since. They're not pretty but they really haven't given me any trouble unless I knock one by mistake ( because it is bigger than my finger!) and then it's a bit of a nuisance. I looked them up and found out they're associated with osteoarthritis, since then I have also been diagnosed with RA. However the only time anyone mentioned them was after I had started the methotrexate and as soon as they found out I had had them for a while they weren't interested.
