Right, that's what I'm getting at. But how can you use your Apple ID
accessibly to recover your key if you selected that option?

I think this has changed. I believe with Yosemite, you can use your Apple
ID and password as an alternative method if you forget your initial password,
but this must be chosen when you are turning on FileVault. At least, this was
the selection I sued when I turned it on my Mac Book Pro.

Sorry, no. The recovery key is the intended method to recover. You must have
a copy, or have requested it be stored with Apple. See support article:

You’ll have to recall your password, or get the recovery key. You get the
recovery key during setup (at least, if done using System Preferences, since
it’s possible to do without if setting up from the CLI).
I do hope you haven’t lost either. Try every password you think you may have
used.
