Indexed doesn't mean indexed if the wrong datatypes are used. We need to
see the table and index definitions, and a sample query with EXPLAIN

To me, this sounds like a sequence scan, or one of your key matches so
many rows, the random seeks are throwing off your performance. Of
course, I can't confirm that without EXPLAIN output.
