Subject: Can my ring be sized up?

Question
I recently purchased this ring on the internet and need it sized up about 1/2 of a size, is this possible with the setting? http://www.diamondsonweb.com/shopping/setdetail.mhtml?c_gid=3;cat=20;setid=68

It should be no problem for just 1/2 size, take it to a jewelry store who has a shop on premise, it will be done quicker. Make sure they will re-rhodium finish the ring, which is a white flash coating on top of the white gold if it is white gold as the ring will discolor slightly overtime if it is white gold and not platinum.
all the best
Les
