'97 Avalon power steering by ydnic

While I am driving my Avalon, the steering is very stiff and jerky. After turning the steering wheel does not return to straight.
 
Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
 
I used a syringe to extract most of the old power steering fluid and added new Dex III, as recommended by my Toyota manual. Someone told me that I should add some Lucas power steering fluid to stop any leaks (none visible) and make smooth steering. I purchased the Lucas, but I am hesitant to add it to the reservoir as it is not mentioned in my Toyota manual. If it is safe I will take some of the Dex III out and add Lucas to the fill line.
 
I appreciate any help with this problem.
