I would keep the appointment but let the vet know what's going on before they give the vaccinations. It may be that his diarrhea is just a passing symptom and not a big deal, especially if he's acting normally otherwise. If he isn't improving, getting him seen and the reason for the diarrhea checked out is a good idea.
