You should probably consider respeccing to disc sometime between 45 and 50 if your self-healing (vamp embrace) starts to fall off. I'm not sure how good/bad it is in 3.0.2.
From there I would recommend getting people to power-blast you through instances because you'd be surprised how gear-dependant priests are at lower levels. Good gear isn't a requirement, but it is very tough to level effectively without it. (unlike say, mages or warlocks)
