Does Gabapentin Cause Hallucinations?

I have taken Gabapentin and it caused me to have seizures and hallucinations. It was prescribed by a pain management Dr. I am bipolar and I take several meds. One of which is Topomax. I could never get a straight answer from my Dr or Pharmacist if this could be the cause. My body is in so much pain. I do physical therapy and minimize my pain meds. Would Lyrica be better for me than Gabapentin? Would love to hear different advice. Thanks
