Default Diabetes concern: Unitentional weight loss

I have had unintentional weight loss from 108 lbs to 97 lbs. I am 60 inches in height and have a small build so I don't think 97 is dangerously thin. This weight loss occurred over a period of 9 months.

I was wondering if weight loss is a sign of diabetes. I did have fasting blood sugar of 134 in January this year.

My age is 64. My father had diabetes and he had small, thin build.

My next Dr appointment is in February 2013. Should I go in before then?
