freon is a gas, so if it were leaking you wouldn't know...

Take it to a shop that has an evac machine that measures the ib's removed and see how much you have lost or if you have lost any. If so, add dye to the a/c system and have him put the correct amount of 134a in the system per the sticker under the hood.

Check if the a/c compressor tubing feels cold after running your a/c for a while. I would get it checked by a mechaninc. Possibly needs more freon.
