>John eats apples but Tom doesn't/does not.
You are right in saying there is an omitted phrase. The "doesn't" is referring to "eats apples". The full un-omitted sentence would be,
> John eats apples but Tom doesn't/does not eat apples.
By the way "John eats apples but Tom don't" is meant to be incorrect English, but in the town I grew up in in England, many young people and people that speak in heavy dialect use "don't" like that. However, you don't ever see it like that in written English, and it is not a standard thing.

>but you might not in your case
This refers to the fact that the speaker has no problem in the hospital with only those items.

Normal version: In my case, I’ll have no problem in the hospital with only these items, but you might not in your case.
"Full" version: In my case, I’ll have no problem in the hospital with only these items, but you might not have no problem in the hospital with only these items in your case.

The "full" version is way too long and redundant lol, so we obviously don't say that.

Now that I think about it, this might be a double negative. You can change the wording to not use "might not" at all.

Alternate version: In my case, I’ll have no problem in the hospital with only these items, but you might.

I think this sounds natural too.

If you have any further questions please feel free to ask.
I will answer tomorrow, time to sleep. (nearly 3 AM!)
