Gauze left inside me after surgery? pics inside. worried...

I made a call to the on-call doctor and will go in tomorrow to get it looked at. I was sleeved 13 days ago (Sept 10, 2014) my surgical glue wore off about 3 days ago. tonight I thought there was some fuzz on my small wound furthest to my left where a laparoscopic trocar was used. I started to pull on the fuzz and noticed there was more of it. I tugged a little more and it appears as if it is deeper. I am worried that this is a small piece of a larger portion under my healing scar. I don't want to pull too hard and cause some unwanted damage. I am going in tomorrow to get it checked out. in the mean time, I wanted to show you some pictures I took with my Samsung Galaxy S5 (kick ass camera). have you heard of this? experienced this? know someone who has? I am for the first time a little worried...

Ha that is freaky. I found little dissolvable suture material sticking up out of my incisions.

Well what happened? Is everything ok?
