Let me ask this. Are you planning to use chewables longterm or just for a little while since your surgery was recent? If you're planning to switch to a multi you swallow soon, then I wouldn't worry about the selenium in the chewable for now. Selenium deficiency is not very common in this country and it's pretty unikely you'd develop a deficiency in a month or two.
If you plan to use a multi without selenium for more than a couple months, though, I would consider adding a selenium supplement. I would probably just add a very small dose and then watch your labs to see if you need to add more.

Celebrate, Bariatric Advantage and Building Blocks are brands that make good chewables. Good in terms of the nutrition, I mean. You only need two of those a day. I think you can get samples of all those to see if you like the taste.
