99 Sub 1500 4x4 bit rough on accel

I have a 99 Suburban 1500 4x4 gas with just over 117,000 km's on it. It's given me the same code 3 times now as I've cleared it to see if it keeps coming back. The vehicle seems to run find although while idle you can feel a little miss so to speak. During travel all seems normal but while under load or heavy acceleration theres seems to be a lack of power and maybe like the motor is missing on 1 cyl a bit. Seems like there is a bit of vibration. Here is what the scan pulled Should I change the sensor or could something else be causing this problem an setting off the sensor!

The heater cuircut for the O2 sensor appears to have failed or is not responding properly.The sensor has a heater so the sensor will warm up faster to put the engine into closed loop.This sensor is used to monitor the converter prefomance.I would get the heater circuit monitored with a scan tool and check for the voltage changes.As the heater warms up,the voltage should drop.Monitor all four O2 sensors.You may need to change more than one.You must also check the wiring to the sensor.A wire for the heater curcuit may have broke or has corrosion.
