Ive heard of BPD being mis diagnosed as bi polar quite a lot. My ex wife told me she was diagnosed as bi polar but there was no follow up. No medication or anything else.
I think what is more important for you is to look at her actions and think if they are acceptable to you. You may never find out if she has BPD or bi polar but what you do know for a fact is how she treated you and how it made you feel.
