Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Fibromyalgia can affect any part of body including vulva.
Treatment of fibromyalgia consists of pain killers and anti-depressants.
In addition to drugs, moist heat, stress reduction is also required.
You will have to live with the disease since it is a chronic disease.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
