I should state that my symptoms are mostly on the left side. My question is,
is the a PD symptom or a side effect of the medication? <<

Hi Jim,

Swelling of ankle and/or foot can be a consequence of PD, due to the
tendency to move less. It can also be a side-effect of medication. (And of
course both). Since you first noticed it afters starting new med it is
likely to be caused by the meds.
