What was the specific code? Not all O2 sensor codes mean the sensor is bad. It might be a problem elsewhere - for example a leaky exhaust, misfires that is causing the sensor to misread the exhaust and add fuel that isn't needed, making the problem worse, and driving the long term fuel corrections to the limits, where they set the "O2 sensor lean" code.

If you have the specific code, it might indicate where the problem is, if its not actually the sensor.
