Also please remember that, as long as your husband has been with his company for 12 months and there are at least 50 people working for the company, they are required to provide him with the time off to care for you and your family during your times of illness under the Family Medical Leave Act for up to 12 weeks a year.
I completely understand where you're coming from in not wanting to go to the hospital and upset the proverbial apple cart, but you know what? You're the one who largely keeps that apple cart going and you're simply not able to do that right now. I am very worried for you, thinking about you being alone this weekend. Things can go south very quickly when you're feeling as unwell as you are. Please, get to the hospital today. Your husband's work will simply need to adjust. What if you had some sort of accident or some "traditional" physical illness (keeping in mind that bipolar IS a physical illness) - he'd have no choice but to stay home. You're too important to not get the care you need.
