Does Lamictal Cause Nightmares?

since starting lamictal over yr ago I have been having awful nigthmares sometimes same nightmare over and over again, it will end then right away start back up again lie repeating in a loop. It kinda feels like I am still awake during them. I don t enjoy this at all. I take the lamictal for epilepsy. If not I get night time only seizures. I am note sure what to do. I am planning on speaking to my nuerologist.
