Don't switch bedrooms
Keep sleeping where you normally do. Moving to a spare room because of a suspected bite usually spreads a problem that was contained to one room, and carrying loose bedding between rooms does the same thing.
What you're looking for

A fed bed bug is small, flattish and reddish-brown, roughly the size of an apple pip, and walks rather than jumps or flies. A bite pattern alone isn't proof, since reactions differ from person to person, so search the mattress seams, the headboard and nearby skirting for the insect, shed skins, or dark spotting.
Shared houses near Walthamstow and Leyton stations

The turnover of shared houses and flats close to the Victoria line stations in Walthamstow and Leyton is often how bed bugs arrive in the first place, travelling in on luggage or furniture with a new tenant. Check every bed in the house, including a rarely used sofa bed, and tell housemates as soon as you find something.
Tell the right people
Renters should let a landlord or agent know without delay and check what the tenancy says about pests. A block or house manager needs telling too if the problem could have spread beyond one room. None of this is a sign anyone did anything wrong.
Getting ready for treatment
Preparation is mostly laundry, sealed bags and clearing floor space around each affected bed. There's usually no need to throw the mattress away - treatment deals with it in place.
