Hello and welcome to Just Answer! I'm sorry to hear you are having this problem. Let's work together to resolve the issue. Is the check engine light on and if so have you retrieved the diagnostic codes?

I received a code for rocker arm sensor stuck on bank one but I changed the sensor

OK, depending on the rocker arm it may have dumped a lot of fuel and damaged the [catalytic converter](/topics-catalytic-converter-honda/). Can you remove the upstream [o2 sensor](/topics-o2-sensor-honda/) or down pipe of the [exhaust](/topics-exhaust/) and see hot it then revs?
