What is normal blood sugar level for non-diabetics?

So i’m really interested in blood sugar and diabetes and my diabetes Type II runs in my family. I’ve been taking my blood sugar about once a day for the last 3 weeks. The lowest I have been was 76 and the highest was 157 (this was about 4 hours after supper one night and I really wasn’t feeling well). I just took my blood sugar because I’m really not feeling well (tiredness, nausea, headache, and a few other things) and it was 149. Could this be a reason I’m not feeling well? I’ve taken it a few days 4 times a day and my blood sugar is kind of strange because it is low in the morning (so that’s not weird) then goes high before lunch and supper then kind of drops off. Could I have pre-diabetes?

What is a normal range for blood sugar?

I had always though between 80 and 120 was normal, but if I get below 100 I start feeling dizzy. I am on new meds and it has been up and down, from 50 to 190. I know it shouldn’t be up and down like that.
