I do believe I am bi-polar and that had a lot to do with my actions, but it doesn't excuse them. I disgraced myself and my husband. The guilt eats me up inside.

Just as a manic episode of bipolar could have contributed to your cheating on your husband, it can also be contributing to your "urgent" need to confess now. One of the markings of bipolar disorder is the inability to weigh the consequences of impulsive actions. You need to seriously weigh the consequence of confessing to your husband before you do so. I recommend that you do not confess until you get a definite diagnoses and have been under any necessary treatment. You need to be stable and capable of weighing the consequences before any confessions to your husband.

Laura- you have an excellent insight to what bipolar is about! I agree very much with what you've said! You gave excellent advice!

I've found the advice of TMeeks, Laura, PBaribeault, and APZR reliable in the past and continue to find it so here.

Particularly Laura's good and timely note that of Bipolar disorder is involved, it could indeed be leading you into a premature admission. By all means, take care of this aspect first before you proceed into uncharted waters. You'll need 100% of your wits about you to deal with this.
