Eng 1+2 bleed inop, QRH and ECAM,

Ok so the scenario is you take off with bleed 1 fault deferred MEL.

In cruise you get the CAB PRESS ALT excess warning.

suspecting the other Bleed you go to the ENG 1 + ENG 2 bleed QRH procedure which tells you to go back to complete the ECAM, then to go back to the QRH procedure.

(The bleed abnormal was a OEB item, you used to be able to go to the OEB first but now Airbus says you must do the ECAM first.
Yet you must be sure you cannot reset the bleed before descending right, or you would descend right away, with a mayday with traffic below in congested euro airspace?)

Then after you must go back to the QRH, when exactly?

The QRH procedure enables us to reset a bleed and start the APU.

AIRBUS says do the ECAM and then QRH right?

but before initiating a rapid descent with two bleeds inop dont you want to try to reset the bleed and possibly get a bleed back first?
Starting the apu asap
