Post help with brakes

I have a 78 F-100 with a 76 400m from an LTD bolted to a c6.Anyway, On the way to work my brakes were acting funny,needed more pressure than usual.I checked the mc,it was 3/4" low so i filled it. When I got to work the brakes were squealing intermitently.Later when I drove home the squeal would come and go at low speeds? What could this be?
