Exclamation power steering/brake problems

driving today my power steering would act like it was gone for a second then come back and work fine for 5 or 6 miles then it did it again... and my brake pedal his hard as a brick could this be a hydro boost problem or something else

when that happened to me it was the ps/hydroboost seal leaking
my brakes locked up...I had to crack the lines from the master cylinder and that relieved the pressure enough to drive it, but the ps groan didn't quit.
Sounds like yours hasn't quit altogether, so ? maybe its something else?

Not to sound degrading, but is there enough fluid in the reservoir
