Hi! I was diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy last August after almost 15 years of wrong diagnoses. Recently I have been experiencing ringing in my ears. It is loud and distracting, and it comes and goes. I am not on any meds other than for pain management, so I can't blame the meds.
I have taken the meds you listed before (years ago) but none of them caused tinnitus.
I hope this helps you.

Hello @everyonesxwife, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thanks for sharing your experience. It's helpful to learn from the experience of others. From Mayo Clinic's information on Tinnitus the ringing can come and go..."The phantom noise may vary in pitch from a low roar to a high squeal, and you may hear it in one or both ears. In some cases, the sound can be so loud it can interfere with your ability to concentrate or hear external sound. Tinnitus may be present all the time, or it may come and go. There are two kinds of tinnitus."

Have you discussed the ringing in your ears with your doctor?
